Application filed 4 m 5, 1924. Serial no. 104,439.

To all til/2071b it may concern:

Be it known that I, Maren Rornua citizen of the United States, and resident of New York, borough ofBronx, and State ofNB-W York, have invented certain'new and 115. Improvements in" Pattern Charts, of which the following is a specification,

In a patent of l lutter, No. 1,387,723 of August 16th, 1921, there is described a paper pattern for garments in which notches are provided on the edges of the pattern pieces,

which notches are identified by numerals which match with corresponding numerals on the other pieces.

My present invention comprises a chart to assist the user in assembling the pieces of fabric out according to a pattern in which the registration of the parts is indicated in this or in some other similar way.

The accompanying drawings represent a chart embodying the invention.

The chart includes an illustration of the assembled garment minus a sleeve, and a separate illustration of the sleeve.

On these views the seams are indicated, and there are triangular marks along the seams, which are in register with each other and are numbered on both sides of the seam. These correspond with the triangular notches or similar marks on the pieces of the pattern and the numbers which are also printed on the pattern. These numbers serve three purposes. First, they indicate which two pieces are to be joined together. Second, they show the relative positions of the two pieces, itheing understood that the twopoints 1 must register, the two points 2 must register, and so forth.

I have also on this chart arranged that they shall serve a third and very important function; namely, that of indicating the order in which the several parts of the garment can be sewed together to the best advantage or with the least difiicnlty and confusion. 7

To indicate this order, I have used the numerals 1 where the first seam should go, the numerals 2 for the second seam, 3 for the third seam, and so forth, and have directed the user to follow this order by the legend Sew garment together according'to the consecutive order of the numbered notches.

By way of fuller and more specific in structions, I prefer also to add directions so forth.

describing the several pieces and seams. The Pi t re identifie he eems on y by 1111.111- be Th P ed rections en fy hem by ra- .11s and the name f h Pi es- A PQr iZDs o. he te Pa en slee e te d t0 t e it ien Pieces of he p te n ha e heir lumesu inte l ere as f t, ba k nd s erth- I u e the same ti les in the specific printed directions on the chart and preferably also print them on the illustration.

The particular directions are shown at the left .of the drawing, as 1. Insert welt and pocket, 2. Join underarm seam, and These particular directions have an advantage in special cases in which the illustration does not take in all the parts of the garment. For example, in the drawing the facing seam does not show. his not necessary to make a separate drawing to illustrate this.- The particular directions are sufficient in saying 5. Join seam of facing. 1

The number 9 is omitted as it might sometimes be confused with 6.

In referring above to a garment, it will be understood that the invention may be applied to any substantial part of the garment which is made up of a number of pieces sewed together, and that it is applicable not only to garments in the strict sense, but to various similar things for which patterns of this sort are or may be used. It is also to be understood that the Arabic numerals with which the seams are marked constitute only one of a number of different series of symbols which mayv be used for the same purposes. I

Though I have described with great par ticularity of detail a certain embodimentof my invention, yet it is not to be understood therefrom that the invention is restricted to the particular embodiment disclosed. Various modifications thereof, in detail and in the arrangement of the parts may be made by those skilled in the art without dethe parts of the garment are to be assembled.

llO

A pattern chart including an assembled view of the garment showing the seams thereof marked with the symbols of a certain series on the opposite sides of the seams indicating the correct registration of the pieces at opposite sides of the seams, said symbols being applied to the different seams in a determined consecutive order corresponding to the order in which the seams. are to be made in assembling the parts of the garment.

3. A pattern chart comprising an illustration of an assembled garment with the seams thereot marked with the symbols of a certain series in a determined consecutive order corresponding to the order in which the parts of the garment are to be assembled said illustration being accomi. A pattern chart comprising an illustration of an assembled garment with the seams thereof marked with the symbols of a certain series in a determined consecutive order corresponding to the order in which the parts of the garment are to be assembled, said illustration bearing also the names of the different parts, and said chart having printed directions thereon showing the order in which the diiterent parts, identified by the names in the illustration, are to be assembled.

In witness whereof, I have hereunto signed my named.
